Mike Carey's call on the Thomas ruffing the passer, that negated Wagner's Int in Miami's endzone and gave Miami 1st down and goal cost us the #2 seed. Thanks Mike Carey.

As for the 9ers getting the two seed I say good, that puts them directly in our path. There will be no sweeter victory this year than demolishing the 9ers in their house to end their season on our way to the NFC championship.

I said it after the Lions game. That was the one that cost us. Sure, any of them cost us. The early games are understandable, as Wilson and the offense still taking baby steps. The Lions game was the first the offense won for us only to see the defense lose it for us. And if we'd have learned the lesson we learned after the Dolphins game after the Lions game, we wouldn't have lost it.

OP has it right. The dolphins loss hurts most. We played well offensively but couldn't stop a rookie QB on multiple third downs when it counted. The earlier losses we hadn't quite gelled yet, the Dolphins game , we should have won. Would have had a bye. Damn.

Someone recently posted a video of all the bad calls in the Packers game. The part I though was hilarious was the announcer stating during the catch that Tate was going for possession and even mentioned simultaneous possession and then of course goes turn coat and says it was an Int. But in the heat of the moment, he was saying simultaneous catch all the way.

Cant boil anything down to one play, or even one game. If thing's went how 'they're supposed to' the NFL season would be over in August. If San Fran had done what everyone expected and beat St Louis twice we wouldnt be having this convo. At the end of the day we're playoff bound with a team on a hot streak, our future is in our own hands now so GO HAWKS

That's why I was so livid and critical after those losses. They hurt us, especially the Miami game, as it was late in the season. We've played about as well as a team can play since then, but it was too late.

Anyways, the very first frame shows the most important element that so many have missed: Golden Tate controls the ball before Jennings.

This video from another analysis does a good job of showing the zoomed-in view, and Tate gets his left hand in between Jennings and makes the one-handed catch before Jennings closes his hands around the ball. Here is a cap from that video.

Hardly the best quality, but you can see Jennings’ helmet and space between his hands and the ball as Tate catches it first. Here are the first four frames to show the point of first contact with the ball (click here for huge image).

In the first frame the ball has yet to arrive. It does in the second, and it is stopped by Tate’s left hand with Jennings yet to touch it. The ball does not even move in the third and fourth frames, as Tate’s hand is holding it up the whole time as Jennings wraps his two hands around it.

Tate controls the ball with his left hand throughout the whole play. He controlled the ball even before Jennings did, because he touched it first as we have already seen. He has control, and you do not need two hands or arms for control. It is ridiculous how people are ignoring the fact that one-handed catches are made all the time.

You should read the rest, it continues showing clearly that it was a legitimate catch and even shows Tate got his feet down first as well.

You should stop it.

Richard Sherman doesn't just wanna get in your head, he wants to build a vacation home there.

It was a catch. Sure, there was OPI on Tate that was ignored, but so what? The refs got the catch part correct.I'm with others, let's call it the "Wail Mary" play because of pathetic Wailing of butt-hurt Packer fans.There was minimal media attention for the Super Bowl XL officiating debacle.All Packers had to do was beat the Vikings today. Still wailing... hope their silly fixation with that game gets them beat against the Vikings in round 1.

GREEDY PUNK PAUL ALLEN, THIS LOSS IS ON YOU."I don't give a crap WHAT you gotta pay, Kam is worth it and I don't want to lose a shot at another SB cuz you - a freaking BILLIONAIRE, are cheapskating Kam over a freaking $900,000.You cheapskate." SalishHawkFan SEP 13, 2015 1:47 PM

We could play the what-if game all day. Honestly I think it was those losses and that 6-5 record that motivated this team to turn it around and get to 11-5. I wouldn't trade our struggles for anything.

Not only was it blatant pass pass interference, it was also an interception. The only people that don't think so are Seahawks fans (shocking).

Please find one instance in the history of the NFL that an offensive pass interference has ever been called on a hail Mary and I will happily agree with you but if you can't find one then will you agree with me? If not then I think you are the one beingridiculous and ignoring facts that are put in front of you.
